Thanks! …Christiane Stahl asked him to wait half an hour to go to the official photo with foreign guests, the French president blurts out: "We have broken boxes for two hours, with a hot as hell, that's enough! This kind of circus is not for me, not my stuff, I leave to silly women ...".
….LOL

I think Sarkozy summed up most guests thoughts. This was a very boring wedding and I'm sure that the heat did not help.

my estimation of sarko just went up a notch! wouldn't you loved to have seen stahl's face ROFL i think it's interesting we haven't seen photos official photos of the wedding (except for that tragic one on the stairway) shouldn't we see some photos of them alone? it's just weird and a bigger farce than anything i could have imagined

Wow! Great "political advisor" Stahl ;D ;D ;D This explains much of why Monaco is in such a misery today. It seems Stahl and Charlene are just two of the same kind. Wasn't it enough to fire Stahl - who very probaply "installed" Charlene - to get rid of many people who are not good for Monaco ... and Albert? We are so focussed on Charlene - but she seems just to be the instrument...

Total control. Wasn't it Kate & Will's wedding where I saw live on tv how even VIP took pictures of each other before entering Cathedral with their own cell phones - for fun? THAT's a wedding.

Yes. and yes. Don't remember who said it - or if it was in an article -but I did see a few people with camera's and cell phones during the "religious" ceremony in spite of this rule.

Some team mates of charlene published on their fb foto of the event. inside the courtyard during the ceremony and also of cockatils and gala they attend with Fatal and Charl during the 3 days.

I think that says it all. they attracted grannys, but the people they want to attract to come to Monaco, those didn't care. If I wouldn't have lived here and been on the forum, I wouldn't have watched either. I didn't watch the TV show. I didn't want to hear french journalist speaking about love and glamour. ;D On a video posted on this forum, when CW had some tears I heard that a journalist said "Monseigneur hate tears" My guess is that Albert was not happy with those tears and about the mess on the internet and news papers. I believe that PR fails are Charlene fails. It was too difficult to promote such wedding and love story.

i read on a sugah forum some "upset" people by the negative press blah blah blah what it said about cynical people blah blah blah just like the trolls the past couple of days blahblahblah that's why it's not working, people aren't cynical they just know when love is in the air around a couple personally i think all the the CP couples started out or are in love, you notice the shared look (and notice when it's gone)>> the gentle, natural affection, a laugh, a tender moment nothing mushy just simple shared communication. the way Haakon looks at his family sometimes just melts my heart it can't be faked!!! just like all the nice clothes in the world don't make her stylish, all the oddly staged kisses are just drawing attention to this trainwreck....NEVER in a million years did i think it was going to be this bad....day after day, scorn, ridicule, out right mockery I LOVE IT ;D ;D ;D no really all these years of watching her and knowing what she is, knowing but nobody paying attention and NOW i mean i just never thought it would be this FUN this forum ROCKS!!!! HELP i want to find that video and i can't find it the one of trashlene coming down the street/aisle and that weird, little look, just for a second i think i might have a clue, on eringer there's a suggestion FatAl wanted her to leave and use the dna test as the reason, letting them off the hook and still getting PR>> she double crossed him by giving up her passport and starting all the bad press in motion (SHE is so dumb, she really thinks she can control stuff...it's hilarious, these two would be dangerous if they weren't so stupid) could that look have been revenge it was evil, scary, clearly something was going through her big head and it was un-controlled, just a second her true thoughts before going back to robotic unhappy victim OH I WANT to see that video again because i think that's it, REVENGE in her pointed little head is to make him look stupid and be a victim<<< ohhh bad move, being "weak" makes the sharks tear apart quicker. she's picked her royal role and she's going for tragic Diana, loved and championed by the world against her big, bad husband won't work, people watched Diana grow up in her marriage, by the time she was trashlenes age she was a mother and doing good works. diana's pain seemed personal, trashlenes just seems amusing and justified. she knew the rules, she made her bed and deserves her misery laying in it.

"OH I WANT to see that video again because i think that's it, REVENGE in her pointed little head is to make him look stupid and be a victim" ... well, in asymetric relationships _and this one is asymetric on so many levels_ women tend to turn the tables just the way CW does it now And ... yes, I thought about Albert comming uo with the DNA-tests to get rid of her too ;D He is desperat ... Why did the "babymothers" go public NOW, just days before the "wedding". They had 18 or 3 month time (if the age was reported right), didn't they? And the danger and problems that might cause for them are the same no matter when they go public

Good for them.

the bad PR is not dying down, if anything it's picking ups steam in the states ;D (i saw TWO stories on entertainment shows last night, both snarky & fabulous!) one was on E (favorite channel, i have a crush on joel ) willKat landed in LA so it was THE NEWS but non dynamic duo was TEASED the whole hour "unhappy princess" then it was the last 3 minutes with the credits. it was great>> glum faces at the wedding, grim faces of bride and groom, bride busting into tears with hateful faced groom, bits of that tragic speech (the best studdering part) all the awkward kissses IT WAS FAB and such bad PR compared to all the glowing WK stories. i nominated E for honorary opiner status ;D the other was a teaser for next week on ET "the grimaldi curse" has it struck again. (clapclapclap) and then there's this article this morning, OH it's just so much better than i anticipated WEEEeeeeeehoooooooooooo THE BIGGEST PR FAIL in history since Henry the 8th ROFL www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2011/jul/09/princess-charlene-kate-fairytale-weddingthis week, as images were beamed back of Kates every outfit and move, a tale of another princess offered an interesting counterpoint. Pictures of Monaco's implausibly named Princess Charlene weeping through her wedding were an unsettling
Over a thousand photographers and journalists have followed them (WillKAt), a level of attention for a royal tour unseen since Diana's heyday. One can only imagine what the famously jealous Prince Charles, whose tours command only a handful of journalists, feels about being so upstaged
but it is in fact a deeply old-fashioned patriarchal institution,positively medieval in the case of Monaco. ........., but coerced in private – can be traumatic, as Diana discovered.
This dark side of the fairytale was conjured up by images of Prince Albert and Princess Charlene's nuptials. Like Diana, Charlene clearly had her doubts. But while Diana's were expressed in private to her sister.......... Charlene's were on full display. Rumours had swirled in the European press that after reports of yet another paternity case against Albert – and this time a child allegedly conceived during Charlene's relationship with him – she had tried to run away three times back to South Africa, where she grew up. Her weeping at the vows looked more like distress than sentiment. Prince Albert's failure to comfort his bride brought to mind Prince Charles's public indifference to Diana, as did later pictures showing Charlene grimacing at Albert's kiss. If this was a fairytale romance, then it was the Brothers Grimm version. ;D
we expect overblown nonsense from Hello! (and can expect the marital disaster that usually follows), it sheds light on what is at stake in the modern fantasy. The aim of a royal wedding is to become "iconic" (Hello!'s words again). Hanging over their wedding was the ultimate modern-day iconic royal wedding: that of Albert's own mother, Princess Grace, who set the standard with her mix of style, Hollywood glamour and outsider status. Charlene scored well....... It was only her tears that suggested her own unconscious recognised that far from a fairytale, this, in fact, may be the beginning of a long struggle
Is it the bride for who she is, or the bride for how much she can look like a princess? (in trashlenes case Neither!)
more brides are aspiring to this symbolism. Kate and William's wedding gave it a huge boost. To the bewilderment of a generation of feminists, girls throughout the country snapped up princess dolls
it was all the more dramatic that Princess Charlene so spectacularly blew hers. She had found her prince wasn't a fairytale prince, but an all-too-real one before the event – rather than after it, as in Diana's case.
two days and EUR 20m of princely wedding festivities in the tiny Mediterranean tax haven of Monaco, one image has come to define the new crown-princess, Charlene.
The working-class South African, just married to a prince 20 years her senior, emerged from the royal chapel where she laid her bouquet with top lip wobbling and a tear rolling down her cheek. While she dabbed the tears with a hankie, Prince Albert begged in a whisper, "Don't cry, don't cry."
Palace officials of the principality are still trying to limit the damage
Charlene could now be subsumed into the myth of the "curse of the rock", in which the love lives of the Grimaldis are said to be fated with pain and suffering

I love it, keep um' coming. I do not like that they are still paining Charlene as a victim. The media is still not reporting (or not aware) just how much Conlene wanted this wedding and how she already knew Albert's infidelities. But, give them time - it took them six years to realize that this is not a fairy tale love story. I cannot wait until Albert and his peeps get tired of this gold digger being painted as his victim and he is an orge who forced her to marry him. just to produced an heir.

Albert already said that the honeymoon was a disappointment, so since it can't be due to the lack of love between the two of them, as they both knew that it wasn't there, it can only mean the absence of the crowds to celebrate the homecoming queen. I am sure that they hoped at least by going to SA they would get some English speaking media on them and if they had huge crowds this would get reported back home and could help turn things around. Now no one came for any of their events for the wedding, they have bad press for the sold bride and in SA people couldn't care less, apart from those like Tutu who gets a huge check for his charity in return for heaping compliments on trashy of Monaco. So all in all Albert got married with high hopes for publicity and cash return and all he gets is snide remarks, ridicule and financial and political problems back home. That"s not what he bargained for. Plus he has 2 more mouths to feed, plus the ones that trashy will drag with her to Monaco to keep her company and live of his money. BY the time summer is over and National Holiday and the yucky season starts, he will really be fed up with everything and people in Monaco with him, that sth will eventually happen....

he said sth of the sort in the German interview he gave to the rumours... I just assume since his expectations are not the ones of a regular newlywed considering this is all about PR and money, it has to be the negative crowds and press.

In this article it is said that the rumours did not bother him doing his IOC job, but the honeymoon was not going as expected...it's an indirect quote of Albert. Die Spekulationen hätten ihn zwar nicht von seiner Arbeit bei dem IOC-Treffen abgebracht, die Flitterwochen verliefen aber nicht ganz so, wie erwartet. www.news.de/medien/855200220/ehe-geruechte-sind-komplett-konstruiert/1/

I forgot about that. OMG, they probably really did expected a big crowd outside the hotel or at the other places that they announced ahead of time where they would be. OMG, hilarious. I posted the articles that mentioned "the crowd" and the largest number that I read was "two dozens" and then the reporter was probably being kind.
